The Trump administration is considering redirecting $20 million in foreign aid funds to Mexico to help them deport immigrants passing through the country on the way to the United States, according to a Tuesday New York Times report.
The money would pay for bus and airplane fare back to the immigrants’ countries of origin. Per the New York Times, this would primarily affect Central Americans traversing across Mexico to the U.S. border.
The proposal is ironic, as President Donald Trump made calling on Mexico to pay for his border wall a staple of his campaign rallies.
Spanky could just credit Mexico for this service against their bill for the wall…just saying!
Mexico might want to consider a wall on their side of the border, to keep the idiocy out.
I thought Dotard was going to have Mexico pay Mexico for this?
What happened?
I hope all of Trump voters in Arkansas and other place who just lost their Medicaid due to new “work requirements” know that this money could easily have funded their healthcare. But they won’t of course.
In other news, the Kavanaugh vote was just delayed a week. WaPo says it’s no biggie, but I’m betting there’s some problems for Mitch.
